prodigal_son Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 My friends and I have a saying....be smarter than the tool....Of course you can use an acetylene torch to solder with, even oxy acetylene, just apply the heat judiciously. If you are proactive and apply the solder as soon as the fitting is hot enough, you'll never come close to damaging the wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorFade Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 How about this... Crimp them properly and don't use solder at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RooTxBeeR Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Because some people don't have access to a few ton 1/0 crimp press when they have access to cheap gasses.
